Recycling Batteries Responsibly

The European Directive on Batteries and Accumulators aims to minimise the impact of batteries on the environment and encourage the recovery of the materials they contain. In the UK, regulations on the recycling of batteries and accumulators (rechargeable batteries) were Introduced in 2009. The Waste Batteries Regulations aim to significantly increase UK collection and recycling of used portable batteries from 3% in 2007 to 25% by 2012, rising to at least 45% in 2016.

The battery symbol on a product or on its packaging indicates that the product must not be disposed of with general household waste. Instead, it is the consumer’s responsibility to dispose of their waste batteries at a designated collection point so that they can be recycled. The separate collection and recycling of batteries at the time of dispo sal will help to conserve natural resources and ensure that they are recycled in a manner that protects human health and the environment. A comprehensive list of battery recycling centres can be obtained from: www.recycle-more.co.uk

All Samsung products that are subject to the Batteries Directive are compliant with the UK battery and accumulator Requirements. In accordance with national law, SAMSUNG Electronics (UK) Ltd is a member of an approved batteries producer compliance scheme. This scheme collects, treats and disposes of batteries on Samsung’s behalf.

A more detailed picture made for UHD resolution

Samsung’s advanced UHD dimming technology brings the ideal level of contrast and color to your UHD viewing. The higher resolution of UHD also means that the picture requires more processing for a highly-detailed image. That’s why Samsung UHD dimming technology has been developed to process black and white as optimally as possible and produce colors that are far more vivid.

Samsung’s Multi-Link Screen brings your entertainment experience to a whole new level by providing multiple-screen viewing. The Multi-Link Screen (Quad) feature lets you use up to four different screens simultaneously on the UHD screen however you want.

Experience the joys of having four UHD TVs in one.
